Cai Guo-Qiang Quotes
For me it's really important that the work here displays an aesthetic of decay along with the sunken boat with the broken ceramic pieces.

It's really the beauty of decay and death that holds a power here.

But in the case of a painting people have to understand. If only they would realize above all that an artist works of necessity, that he himself is only a trifling bit of the world, and that no more importance should be attached to him than to plenty of other things which please us in the world, though we can't explain them.
